My role is not GM and try to create a roster.

My role is to play baseball.

And those guys can make the decisions that they want to make, obviously.

I mean, I think they know where I stand in terms of wanting to be a Tiger.

But, yeah, that's all I really got for that.

Yeah, it's been great.

It's been great, obviously, since 2020 to what we are now.

And the fans that we bring in and the attendance boost that we had this year, I think it was like second highest jump in the big leagues this year in terms of fans in the stands.

So it's fun.

The fans are great there.

They support us.

They show up on a Thursday day game getaway day just the same as they show up on a Friday night game.

We appreciate it as players.

They bring energy, especially in those middle months of the season when the season kind of starts feeling long and you're trying to get to September to where you get that spike of, okay, it's postseason time.

So our fans are great, though.

I mean, all the noise that gets about me or, you know, the narratives and media that people try to create stories.

I don't really care about it, to be honest.

Nor is a lot of it true.

So it's like I don't care to really waste my energy or time on it.

You know, I'm just going to play baseball and be who I am.
